"You can't be better in a loss than Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was on Saturday night... can't play better, can't be a better example, can't lead better... Shai acted like a grown ass man before during and after."
@notthefakeSVP on SGA's performance in game 7 and actions afterward
Game 7s on your home court is why winning the #1 seed is so important.
One game. The winner goes to the NBA Finals.
Loud City will be electric on Saturday night.
Bleacher Report’s @AndrewDBailey has Shai Gilgeous-Alexander going No. 1 overall in his 2018 NBA re-draft.
“Whether people are ready to admit it or not, the more appropriate comparison, at this point, might be between Gilgeous-Alexander and Michael Jordan. The numbers from both players’ age-24 through age-27 seasons are eerily similar.”

SGA changed Dillon Brooks’ jersey to say ‘Cancun on 3’ 💀
“Everybody wants to be villainous until the brooms come out and the dust settles and you realize who the villain is.”
Odds are it will never get better than this era of Thunder basketball.
My future kids will likely never watch a better OKC team than this one, or see a better player wear an OKC jersey than Shai.
Once-in-a-lifetime stuff. These are the good old days — appreciate it, enjoy it.
Lebron hasn’t been outplayed by another superstar while healthy in a playoff series in 15 years, since the 2011 finals.
Hundreds of games. Dozens of stars. Faced Steph 5 times, KD and Duncan multiple times, Jokic, Butler, Harden, Russ, Dame, Kawhi, Garnett
LeBron has now played 295 playoff games.
In terms of GameScore, his performance tonight ranks 192nd out of 295.
29-13-6 with an insanely clutch steal & 3 pointer is not even a top 190 playoff game for LeBron James.
